The defendant deserves to be punished for his crime, which left two people with injuries. It may have proven fatal.

Others should draw a lesson from this incident: that when a fight or argument breaks out, they should seek help from police, the venue management or security instead of trying to resolve issues on their own.

Also, people without identification documents should not be allowed into clubs.

Shine a light on E10 roadworks

The continuing roadworks on the E10 from Shahama to Abu Dhabi are creating confusion, especially near the airport.

There is poor lighting in this area, where the road narrows yet many drivers continue to speed.

There is no signage to advise drivers to reduce their speed, adding to the dangerous driving situation.

I hope that the authorities will place adequate warning signs and increase the lighting in this area. Ramesh Menon, Abu Dhabi

If you know you can’t commit to a cat for a long time, don’t snatch it from the streets and make it lose its skills to hunt and survive. Instead, look for a domestic cat or dog being offered for adoption.

Domestic cats are not made for a life on the streets. Owners who abandon their pets should be held accountable.
